Summary : A library for access to RESTful web services
URL : http://www.gnome.org
License : LGPLv2
Description : This library was designed to make it easier to access web services that
: claim to be "RESTful". A RESTful service should have urls that represent
: remote objects, which methods can then be called on. The majority of services
: don't actually adhere to this strict definition. Instead, their RESTful end
: point usually has an API that is just simpler to use compared to other types
: of APIs they may support (XML-RPC, for instance). It is this kind of API that
: this library is attempting to support.
